Local Sports!!!! BISHOP CONNOLLY WINS!!!

By Aubrey Medeiros and Alexia Fonseca

Bishop Connolly boys basketball team won the Division 4 state title. They won at the TD Garden. The score was 65 to 62.

Mrs. Santoro, a first-grade teacher, has a son who plays for Bishop Connolly basketball. His name is Jack Santoro; he wears number 4. Jack played in 18 games. Another player is Tommy Keyes. His number is 2 and he scored 362 points in 21 games.

He is the top point scorer for the team.

We asked Mrs. Santoro how it felt to have her son play for a state championship. She said it felt surreal.

He has been playing for 10 years. Mrs. Santoro said she was excited. She said she is proud to be the mother of a state championship player.

In the semi-finals the whole team went to Mrs. Santoro’s house and had a pizza party. Here is a secret about Jack: He wears two pairs of socks when he plays. He gets a bagel at Dunkin’ Donuts and a breakfast sandwich. Jack works hard in school.

Mrs. Santoro’s son and daughter are state champions. Her daughter is a swimmer. Mrs. Santoro never played basketball. She was a cheerleader.

Winter storms

By Savannah Santos and Sabrina Dinis

Winter storms have been named in Europe since 1950. That’s how winter storms were originally named. This way winter storms are easier to refer to in the future. There are 26 winter storms including the storms that did not happen.

Winter storms can be dangerous to go out in. Some winter storms are so strong that if you walk outside you could get blown away. Try to stay indoors.

Winter storms and their names

By Alexis Kublin

Winter snowstorms are named by the Weather Channel.

Why they are named

“Naming a storm raises awareness and giving a storm a name makes it easier to track its progress. Naming storms gives it a personality.”

“It’s easier to classify a storm by name rather than the general ‘a winter storm is coming.’”

“A storm name is easier to remember and can be referenced in the future.”

“A storm with a name is easier to follow, which will mean fewer surprises and more preparation’”

People’s thoughts about naming storms

Not everyone likes the idea of the Weather Channel naming the storms.

“I think… naming winter storms is, at best, a poor decision by a critical source of weather information, and, at worst… a gimmick,” writes WJLA meteorologist Bob Ryan. “There was, from everything I have learned, no coordination of this decision to name winter storms with the National Weather Service or any of the professional groups.”

Why winter storm Nemo was named “Nemo”

It wasn’t named after the clown fish in the movie “ Finding Nemo.” Nemo is Latin for “no one” or “ no man.” “The name also refers to Captain Nemo from Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea,’” says Travelers Today. “Captain Nemo was a pretty tough, fierce guy,” Norcross told the New York Times.
